About the 2026 FIFA World Cup
The tournament runs from June 11 through July 19, 2026. It is unique as the first World Cup hosted by three countries simultaneously — the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Sixteen cities across North America will host matches, including notable locations such as Atlanta, Boston, Dallas, Houston, Kansas City, Los Angeles, Miami, New York/New Jersey, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Seattle, Toronto, Vancouver, Guadalajara, Mexico City, and Monterrey.
The field expands to 48 teams this year, increasing from 32 in previous tournaments. This means more games, more knockout rounds, and a broader range of countries participating than ever before.
Streaming and Broadcast Information
In the United States, English-language coverage appears on FOX and FS1, which are accessible via fubo without cable. Spanish broadcasts run on Telemundo and Universo, available through DIRECTV and Peacock. Streaming availability depends on language and broadcast rights for each match.
Key Dates
The final match is set for Sunday, July 19, 2026, at the New York-New Jersey Stadium (also known as MetLife Stadium). Match times vary due to the multiple time zones involved across the three host countries, so fans should check local schedules.
Since the United States is one of the host nations, it has automatically qualified for the tournament along with Canada and Mexico.
